Patented PRODUCTION OF AMIDINIES Wallace Frank Short and Peter Oxley, Nottingham, England, asslgnors to Boots Pure Drug Company L mited, Nottingham, England, a
company of Great Britain No Drawing, Anplication December 13, 1944, Serial No. 568,070. in Great Britain January 8 s. (Gil. 260501) This invention relates to the production of amidines and its main object is to provide a new method for the production of this class of compound which is generally applicable.
Several methods have already been used for lhe sulohonic acids of which the ammonium salts (RSOaNHQ are used may be such that R is either an alkyl, arallzyl, or aryl group. The nitriles (RUN) which may be used in carrying out the process in accordance with the invention may be such that R may be a substituted or un substituted allryl, arallsyl, aryl or heterocyciic group and, if the boiling point of the nitrile employed is not sufficiently high to enable the reaction to be carried out under atmospheric pressure, the reacting substances may be heated to the requisite temperature in a closed vessel. Furthermore, substances which may be regarded as potential sources of nitriles under the conditions of the reaction, for example, carboxylic amides may be used in the reaction.
Instead of ammonium salts of sulphonic acids, salts of primary mono amines and secondary arylamines with sulphonic acids may be usedresulting in the formation of monoor di-N- substituted amidiues. Where it is'convenient the salts need not be preformed but a mixture of an amine and a sulphonic acid may be used in the reaction.
duced in the above manner have application in chemotherapy.
Example 1 In the manufacture of p-sulphonamidobenzamidine 'D-NHaSOmCcHaCUNHLNI-Iz. 50 gms. of p-sulphonamidobenzonitrile is melted and heated to about 200 C. with gentle stirring, o prevent local overheating. gms.. that is 1.46 molecules, of dry ammonium benzenesulphonate is then added as rapidly as it will dissolve and during this operation which takes about 5 minutes, the temperature of the melt is raised to 250 C. The temperature is maintained at 250 to 255 C. for two hours and the resulting brown liquid is then allowed to solidify and it is then dissolved in 300 c. c. of hot, water. The solution is cooled to room temperature. stirred with 1 gm. of decolourislng charcoal and filtered. The iiitrate is warmed to about 40 C. and an excess oi 0.880 ammon a-25 c. c. or about 1.55 moleculesis added to precipitate p-sulphonamidobenzamidine in a cryst ll ne, easilv filterable form. The product is collected with suction, washed thoroughly with water and dried, when it melts at about 215 C. it may be converted" immediately into a salt, such as the hydrochloride by solution in the appropriate acid.
The ammoniacal liquor (containing ammonium benzenesulfonate) from which the amidine has been removed may be evaporated to constant weight and used to react with a second amount of 50 arms. 05; nitrile.
The process of recovering the ammonium ben zenesulphonate and using it with further nitrile may be repeated.
in variants of the above example, other ammonium sulphonates instead of ammonium benzenesulphonate are caused to react with p-sulphamidobenzonitrile. Thus ammonium toluenep sulphonate, ammonium-m-nitrobenzenesulphonate, ammonium naphthalene-B-sulphonate or ammonium methanesulphonate may be used under similar conditions and the products isolated as described in the above example. l
The following are examples of processes according to the invention, in which other nitrlles are employed.
Example 2 In the preparation of N-(p-sulphonamidophenly) -be nzamidine 2 parts by weight of benzenitrlle, 3.4 parts by weight of sulphanilamide and 3.5 parts by weight of benzenesulphonic acid are heated together at 230 C. for ill minutes. After cooling, the product is dissolved in aqueous-alco- 3 hol andthe precipitate formed on addition of ammonia is separated and crystallised from alcohol. yielding crystals with a melting point of 241- 242 C. (Found, N, 15.4% CnHnOzNsS requires N, 15.27%).
Example 3 In the manufacture of benzamidine-p-sulphonic acid, ammonium p-cyanobenzenesulphonate is heated alone at a temperature of about 310 C. for about an hour. In this case, the single starting material contains both the necessary functional groups. The product is isolated by recrystallisation from water.
Example 4 In the preparation of benzamidine benzenesulphonate, 10 parts by weight of benzonitrile and 17 parts by weight of ammonium benzenesulphonate are heated together in a sealed tube at 250 C. for two hours. The product is cooled and recrystallised from water, yielding colourless crystals of benzamidine benzenesulphonate, with a melting point of 175-1755 C.
Example 5 Example 6 In the preparation of undecane1:11-diamidine picrate, 2 parts by weight of lill-dicyanoundecane and 7 parts by weight of ammonium benzenesulphonate are heated together at 260 C. for three hours. The product is cooled, dissolved in alcohol, and mixed with a, solution of picric acid and thus converted to the picrate which separates. After recrystallisation from methyl alcohol it melts at 192 C.
Example 7 In the preparation of 4-amidino-4'-cyanowp-diphenoxy-ethane benzenesulphonate, 5.28 parts by weight of 4:4'-dicyano-a:p diphenoxyethane and 3.50 parts by weight of ammonium benzenesulphonate are heated together at 260 C. for 2 hours. After crystallisation from water 4 amidino-4'-cyano-:B-diphenoxyethane benzenesulphonate is obtained in crystals with a melting point of 239 C. The picrate obtained therefrom has a melting point of 202 C. (Found N, 16.44% C22H1809N6 requires N, 16.47%.
Example 8 In the preparation of 4:4-diamidino-a:p diphenoxyethane benz'enesulphonate 5.28 parts by weight of 4:4'-dicyano-a:fl-diphenoxyethane and 10.5 parts by weight of ammonium benzenesulphonate are heated together at- 260 for 3 hours. The product is crystallised from water.
Example 9 In the preparation of p-amidinophenyl methyl sulphone hydrochloride 18.1 parts by weight of p-cyanophenyl methyl sulphone and 21 parts by weight of ammonium benzenesulphonate are heated together at 260 C. for 1 hour. After cooling, the product is dissolved in hot water and the solution is filtered, cooled to ca. 60 C. and then poured into a stirred mixture of sodium hydroxide solution and ice. The solid product which separates is filtered off and dissolved in dilute hydrochloric acid. The solution is filtered and cooled while excess sodium hydroxide solution is added. The p-amidinophenyl methyl sulphone which i precipitated is filtered oil and dissolved in dilute hydrochloride acid so that the pH of the solution is 6.5-7.0. The solutionis then evaporated to dryness and pamidinophenyl methyl sulphone hydrochloride is obtained.
Example 10 In the preparation of p-amidinophenyl ethyl sulphone hydrochloride 5 parts by weight of pcyanophenyl ethyl sulphone and 5 parts by weight of ammonium benzenesulphonate are heated together at 225 C. for 4 hours. The product is isolated as described in Example 9 and p-amidinophenyl ethyl sulphone hydrochloride is obtained in crystals with a melting point of 253 C. (Found N, 11.45% C9H1302N2SC1 requires N, 11.3%.) I
Example 11 In the preparation of p-amidinodiphenyl sulphone benzenesulphonate 50 parts by weight of p-cyanodiphenyl sulphone and 44 parts by weight of ammonium benzenesulphonate are heated together at 260-270 C. for 1% hours. From the product p-amidinodiphenyl sulphone benzenesulphonate is isolated by crystallisation from water.
Example 12 In the preparation of ppf-diamidinodiphenylsulphone dihydrochloride 5 parts by weight of pp-dicyanodiphenylsulphone and 15 parts by weight of ammonium benzenesulphonate are heated together at 270 C. for 1 hour. The product is isolated as described in Example 9 and pp-diamidinodiphenylsulphone dihydrochloride is obtained in crystals with a melting point of 300-302 C.
Example 13 Example 14 In the preparation of p-naphthamidine hen-- zenesulphonate, 2 parts by weight of fl-naphthonitrile and 5 parts by weight of ammonium benzenesulphonate are heated together at 250 C. for two hours. The product is cooled and crystallised from water, in the form of colourless crystals melting at 203 C. The free amidine having a melting point of 136 C. crystallises from an alcoholic solution of the benzenesulphonate on adding the theoretical amount of aqueous sodium hydroxide.
Example 15 In the preparation of a-amidinopyridine 5.2 parts by weight of e-cyanopyridine and 12 parts Example 16 In the preparation of N-p-tolylbenzamidine benzenesulphonate, a mixture of 2 parts by weight of'benzonitrile and 5.3 parts by weight, or 1 molecule, of p-toluidine benzenesulphonate is heated in a bath at 240 C. until the internal temperature of the mixture rises to 240 C. The product is then cooled and crystallised from water. In this and the next example, the free amidine may be prepared by adding aqueous ammonia to an aqueous or alcoholic solution of the benzenesulphonate.
If in this example, p-toluidine benzenesulphonate is replaced by the corresponding amount of aniline benzenesulphonate, N-phenyl benzamidine benzenesulphonate is obtained.
